Was Trump’s Call To Georgia a Criminal Act?

I heard an extremely senior federal prosecutor explain this is follows:  “There is no question that Trump’s call was corrupt.  But was it criminal?  Not necessarily.  If he honestly thought he won the state election, and he was asking for votes that he believed existed, that’s not criminal.”

I hate to say it, but he’s right.  That’s probably why this is taking so long, and why additional testimony is required to establish that Trump’s phone call was actually a criminal act.  If this fizzles, it will also explain that.
